The headless queen who haunts the Towers long and haunted history. She has been seen in the Chapel Royal of St. Peter ad Vincula, where her mutilated body was hastily buried in an old arrow chest because no proper coffin had been provided. She has been seen on Tower Green, where she died. She has been seen in the corridors of the White Tower, gliding silently in a grey gown, and near the Queen's House where she spent her final days. In every sighting, she appears headless — carrying her severed head tucked beneath her arm.
